poetry moves readers
poetry moves me a-lliteratively
poetry moves over the years
poetry moves you with the speed of its method
poetry moves beyond depression
poetry moves beyond what is seen with the physical eye
poetry moves along the edges of silence
poetry moves progressively from smaller units such as the word
poetry moves like an already spotty home-movie with frames missing
poetry moves lightly, almost haunting the solidity of the world

poetry moves from Paris and Milan and Florence to New York
